Hi, new here. i have a 2009 dodge journey and i have 2 keys for it. i think they are called the key pods. two keys with chips but no buttons. my friend gave me his remote off of his 2009 dodge caravan. can i program it on my journey? and how? thanks

Once a remote has been programmed, it can't be re-programmed for another vehicle. If you have two working remotes for your Journey, another can be purchased new and programmed using both of your working remotes. They are available on Ebay..Here are the programming instructions...

KEY FOBIK SELF PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS

If you have TWO valid RKE transmitters fobiks, you can program new RKE transmitters to the system by performing the following procedure:

1. Insert the first valid key fobik into the ignition switch and turn the ignition switch to the ON position for at least three seconds, but no longer than 15 seconds. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position and remove the first key.

2. Insert the second valid key fobik and turn the ignition switch to the ON position within 15 seconds.After 10 seconds, a chime will sound and the Vehicle Security Light will begin to flash. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position and remove the second key.

3. Insert the NEW key fobik into the ignition switch and turn the ignition switch to the ON position within 60 seconds. After 10 seconds, a single chime will sound and the Vehicle Security Light will stop flashing, turn on again for three seconds, and then turn off. The new key fobik is programmed.

The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) fobik will also be programmed during this procedure.

Repeat this procedure to program up to eight keys. If you do not have a programmed RKE fobikr, contact your authorized dealer for details.

NOTE: If you have lost both or only have one valid RKE fobik, you must contact or visit your local authorized dealer

for programming information.

Once you have programmed the NEW RKE Fobik to your vehicle, it CAN NOT be Re-programmed to another vehicle in the future.

The dealership will charge you over $200 for a new programmed key fob. The local dealership quoted me $240. I found the fobix online for about $90 but you need two keys to program it yourself. I found a locksmith (pop a lock franchise) that provided me with a new key fob with programming and a key for $150. As a locksmith he came to my work site.In addition to the conveince I saved $90.

I have a 2012 AVP with push start. I forgot after leaving lunch to push my car off and went back to work. I was off after an hour. I come out to my car and did not use hardly any gas but was beeping that my fob was not i vehicle. Does the car ever turn off without the Fob in the car?
